The exterior of the new Lexus ES features motifs from the LF-ZC concept, although they are muted and designed in a more sedan-like style. At the front, there's a two-tiered design with swept-back DCDs at the top and hidden main headlights below.
Hybrid and electric versions look almost identical, with the exception of an additional air intake grille in hybrids that visually connects the headlights.
Dimensions of the new ES have noticeably increased:
- Length has increased by 16.5 cm to 5.14 metres
- Wheelbase is 2.95 metres
The profile of the new ES has become visually taller, and to compensate for this, the designers have added a glossy black insert running through both doors. At the rear, the model now resembles a fastback with a short boot lid.
The model is built on a modernised version of the TNGA GA-K platform, the stiffness of which has been significantly increased. According to Lexus, this has made the car's behaviour more responsive and dynamic.
